Mary Mapes Tries for a Comeback

It isn’t going to happen. The documents were fakes, and everyone knows it. What’s more important is that the anti-Bush story that Mapes was so desperate to put out, in hopes of influencing the Presidential campaign, was false in every essential respect. Sunday morning, Scott will be on CNN’s Reliable Sources, dissecting Mapes’ recent efforts to regain respectability. Sadly, most news personalities who interview Mapes know nothing about the facts relating to Rathergate; fortunately, Scott knows everything, more or less, so this will be a good time to tune in.

Meanwhile, Chris Muir’s Day By Day cartoon sums up Mapes’ approach to “making news” nicely; click to enlarge:
